On January 18, the MCA's ad-hoc committee, approved by the Bombay High Court, had banned the teenaged cricketer for inappropriate behaviour ahead of the quarter-final match between Mumbai and Uttar Pradesh in the U-16 Vijay Merchant Trophy in December.
The teenage cricketer was accused of flashing at his teammate. The MCA committee took the decision after a hearing. The father of the accused cricketer has written a letter to the MCA to review their decision considering that the 'harsh punishment' may affect his future as a cricketer. An MCA official confirmed receiving the letter. "We have received the letter. It will be taken up during an appropriate meeting," he said.
